Goggles for partly-blind spaniel?

[Skygazer]

Hello all,

Our 11-year old Leia is slowly going blind, and keeps getting eye injuries due to her no longer having the reflex to close her eyes when bumping into things (furniture, walls, etc.).

I think she now needs something to protect her eyes, as she is always going to injure them in one way or another; as soon as one eye injury gets better, another one appears.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how we could protect her eyes? Goggles with clear glass? Has anyone had a similar problem?

Thanks for your help!

Have you looked at "doggles"  the lenses actually slide in and out so she may be able to wear them 'lens-less'  or you could contact them to see if they make a clear lens

Thanks for your replies!

I ordered some Doggles, poor old Leia is going to look a bit silly but never mind.

That Angels Vest product is quite a good idea!
